1.Ariarne Titmus, Summer McIntosh, Thomas Ceccon (mention of Honor for Rikako Ikee, because of her personal history)

 

2.Ceccon winning both men's 100m and 200m Backstroke; Marchand flopping big time (= no gold for him); Paltrinieri doin'it again (= getting a podium in the pool and in the open water)

 

3.7 total medals: 2 gold medals (Ceccon, men's 100m + 200m backstroke), 2 silver medals (Paltrinieri, men's 1500m free; Quadarella, women's 1500m free), 3 bronze medals (Martinenghi, men's 100m breaststroke; men's 4*100m free relay; men's 4*100m medley relay)

depending on participation (Titmus and/or McIntosh might/should miss the women's 800m free), Quadarella might get a silver or bronze also in that race, improving the total to 8

Titmus will be competing in the 800 free most likely.

Well for one, I think US is going to top the medal table based off of Trials results so far, Australia’s men’s squad is a bit of a question mark. 
 

1. Caleb Dressel, Sarah Sjostrom, but mainly Summer McIntosh. 
 

2. McIntosh only wins one Olympic gold in the women’s 400m individual medley (I hope I’m wrong…), Jackl wins silver with a HUGE PB, Haughey wins gold over MOC in the women’s 100m freestyle, a random no name medals in the men’s 200m freestyle, and Walsh doesn’t win gold in the women’s 100m butterfly. I know that’s 5 :facepalm:

 

3. Gold for McIntosh in the women’s 400m individual medley, silver in the women’s 200m individual medley/200m butterfly, and bronze in the women’s 400m freestyle. Bronze for Maggie MacNeil in the women’s 100m butterfly, Kylie Masse in the women’s 100m backstroke, women’s 4x100m medley relay, and silver for Josh Liendo in the men’s 100m butterfly (behind Dressel). 8 medals but only 1 gold.

Summer McIntosh, Leon Marchand and Marrit Steenbergen

 

2. Your 3 Brave predictions for Swimming at Paris

I don't know enough about swimming to make good predictions, but I'll try. I predict Adam Peaty to make a great comeback to win the 100m breaststroke, Leon Marchand to win the 400m medley in a world record (lapping his competition) and at least one controversial disqualification of a medal candidate in a relay.

 

3. Your country's swimming predictions

:NED I'm predicting three silvers: Marrit Steenbergen W 100m freestyle and Tes Schouten W 100m+200m breaststroke.

    • It may also be that Ceccerelli saw that the conditions in the Italian youth teams were very poor and that is why she insisted on setting up her own team (the results of young Italian skiers unfortunately confirm this). A private team will always be better than a team with 10-12 skiers with max. 3-4 coaches, a one doctor and a physiotherapist. Colturi is the only skier in her team and she has several coaches, a masseur, a doctor etc. Of course, it costs money, but since the parents are famous and have money + Red Bull got involved. I don't understand why she can't start for Italy again? Red Bull should care more that Colturi starts in Cortina under the Italian flag than the Albanian one + Red Bull, as a brand, always has a bigger sales market in Italy with a population of 60 million than in small Albania. I hope that this can still be reversed by next year. For this we need talks between the federation + Colturi's parents + Red Bull + possibly the Italian Olympic Committee. Colturi may be a skier equal to Brignone or even better in the future. We can't lose her, so we have to do now!
    • I`m very disappointed with this weekend. Only becouse of Ghiotto form I`m happy. Unfortunately, the women's team will not function well if Lollobrigida skips most of the training camps and Fontana starts alternately in short tack and long track. It will end with her not winning any medals here or there, because it`s already clear that it will be very difficult to achieve good results in long track. I hope that she understands this, because in short track she has a real chance of winning medals in the women's relay and the mixed relay but in long track not.
    • Tragic performance of the Italian women's team - last place and probably something bad happened at the start. There are so few starts in the team that it will be a problem to even qualify for the World Championships - 8 best teams. After Lollobrigida's return and Fontana's addition, I was counting on much more, but it seems that there are too few joint trainings. With individual quality, we have no right to lose to the Czechs without Sablikova, or anonymous Korea. And unfortunately this start will count for a lot, because there are only 2 more and our chances of playing at the World Championships are minimal. In my opinion with Fontana going from Short Track to Long Trackand vice versa, we won't be much use in the team. Here great teamwork is needed, not improvisation. As of today, there is very little chance that we will qualify the women's team for the games.
    • men advanced to Division A for the first time since 2018 (when they went 1-8). Don't expect much progress next year
    • Ok, but there we are talking about a person who has parents from different countries. Colturi has nothing to do with Albania.
    • There are few people here from Austria, Switzerland, Norway and Finland.
    • The worst editions in XXI century for us were Vancouver: 5 medals (only 1 gold for Razzoli's on the penultimate day) and Sochi: 8 medals (but no gold). Turin was already a prelude to this bad period, although the number of gold medals was ok. Overall we won fewer medals at home than in 2002 and this was probably the only case in the 21st century when the host country won fewer medals at home than 4 years earlier, either in summer or winter. In general the years 2008-2016 were very bad in our sport, both in summer and winter. Only 2018 in Korea was a slight rebuild + 2 fantastic summer editions in Tokyo and Paris. in Beijing 2022 we won a lot of medals - 17 but only 2 gold (If it weren't for Gogga's injury, I think it would have been 4 gold).
